[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 648762, member: 11791"] Changing. Ah yes. Do you have any idea how much work that actually IS? I'm not kidding. Most people don't even think about it, but if you have even a minor fine motor skills challenge, [I]changing clothes is TORTURE[/I]. been there done that. ME. Personally. (and one of the kids, of course) We counted one day how often they had to change their [I]shoes[/I] in elementary school: at least 10, in that school. And they were expected to use tie-ups "for more practice", until Grade 4. That's not counting changing clothes for PE. What kind of clothes is he wearing for school? T-shirt and jeans? If he wore a looser T, it would be easier to change shirts (loose for both in school and for PE). Changing pants... son got around it for a couple of years by wearing the kind that you can zip the bottoms off of to make shorts. Yes, zipping them back on was faster than changing pants, at least for him. I'm surprised they are even changing at this age. [/QUOTE]
